Spyderco PITS 2 C269TIP

The Spyderco PITS 2 represents a refined advancement in the realm of non-locking folding knives, crafted by the visionary British knifemaker Mike Read. Inspired by his original “Pie in the Sky” design, the PITS 2 enhances the SLIPIT concept with a distinctive and sturdy mechanism that marries modern precision with traditional functionality—making it an excellent choice for areas where locking knives are prohibited. Key Features Blade:The 7.0 cm drop point blade is forged from Böhler M398 stainless steel—an ultra-premium particle metallurgy steel celebrated for its exceptional edge retention, hardness, and resistance to corrosion. The satin finish and full-flat grind provide outstanding slicing geometry, while Spyderco’s Trademark Round Hole ensures effortless, ambidextrous opening. Non-Locking Slipjoint Mechanism:Departing from a conventional lock, the PITS 2 incorporates a unique integrated spring-arm system, precisely machined into the titanium handle scales. As the blade opens, the flexing arms engage with a notched joint and stop pin, delivering tension and secure blade retention in the open position—without technically locking. Handle:The ergonomically contoured skeletonized titanium scales are expertly machined from solid 6AL-4V titanium, providing strength, reduced weight, and a distinctive visual appeal. Finished in a subtle gray stonewash, the handle combines understated aesthetics with high functionality. Pocket Clip & Everyday Carry:A reversible deep-carry pocket clip allows for tip-up left or right-handed carry, ensuring discreet, secure portability and complete ambidextrous functionality—ideal for both urban and travel-friendly use. The Spyderco PITS 2 is a unique fusion of modern engineering and traditional legality—a non-locking knife with full-size capability and premium materials. Perfect for global travel or areas with restrictive knife laws, it’s a purpose-built folder featuring elite steel, titanium construction, and signature Spyderco innovation.
